Halloween Weekend

We started off Halloween week by painting pumpkins!  We didn't really have the motivation to pull out all of our carving tools and make a huge mess that would have to be cleaned up so we decided to stick with painting our pumpkins this year!  We painted a pirate which Shelby named Argyle...he is officially a member of the family. :)

For the actual weekend we went to Twin Falls to spend time with the Hyde family.  It was fun to catch up with everyone that we saw! We miss the small town feel that Twin Falls has. Within the first few hours of getting into town we randomly saw at least five people that we either went to school with or were close to through church...that just doesn't happen in Boise.:) We love Twin Falls and it will always have a special place in our hearts and of course we will always be back to visit since we have family there!

We couldn't be in Twin Falls without spending some time with Amy, Jesse, and baby Myla. Since it was Halloween we decided to go to Tubb's Berry Farm. It was so much fun! We went through both of the straw mazes they had, shot off their corn cannons and won prizes for hitting the targets, walked through the petting zoo, went down all of their fun slides, and went on a hayride. It was a perfect Halloween activity!

                                                       

We were kind of lame and didn't dress up for Halloween this year....although I did dress up the day before for our dance party.  We have lots of ideas up our sleeves for coming years when we will hopefully have little kiddos to dress up with!  After Tubb's Berry Farm we went to Shelby's grandma's house and ate dinner and watched Trick or Treaters come by for candy...we also ate lots of candy which was great! On Saturday Christie and I went to a baby shower for a family friend. Later that day we had a little party for the end of October/beginning of November birthdays.

We love our families and are grateful for the time that we get to spend with them! Now on to November...which started off with visits to the dentist-maybe not the best thing to do the Monday right after a Halloween weekend full of candy and sweet treats! :)

How Shelby feels about the dentist!

Just kidding....that's how he feels about me taking pictures of him at the dentist!
